We are not in a position to check each and every new VCDS registration that comes in to see if it might correspond to a forum account that's not yet verified.

So if you join the forum before you've registered your VCDS (e.g. on April 3, 2024) i.e. when we do not yet have you in our customer records, and then you register your VCDS later (e.g. today!), you'll generally have to bring the situation to our attention in in order to get verified.

But you've done that now, so...

I purchased an unlimited VIN from a reseller outside of the USA.
It says 20 minutes for transaction verification when first setting up VCDS. It's been an hour+.

Can I still use VCDS without any issues? I think it said 13 uses till blocked or something.

Thanks

Hi.
Can I get verified.

Registered VCDS today.

Thanks

Caveat: You have to give us a working e-mail address. If you mis-type it and the typo isn't obvious enough for us to correct when we see a bounce notice, then that complicates things further.

Registered VCDS today.

Yep, you already figured out what went wrong.

Hi Uwe, I did things in the wrong order… (registered for the forum, then did the licence transfer). Please could you see if I can be verified. Thank you very much, Andy

Please DM me and I can provide details of my VCDS purchase. Bought from Gendan Automotive in the United Kingdom.

I'd like to post in the 'car repair support' forum.

Thanks!

He can be a bit... abrasive at times. Still better than another guy who calls himself a "Doctor" though.

Strongly disagree....
I basically said this same thing,

Good evening Uwe - Registration request has been submitted, but not finalised yet - think I'm waiting for a transaction ID before I can click that button.
